In 1996, R.A. Dickey was the Texas Rangers' much-heralded No. 1 draft choice. Then, a routine physical revealed that his right elbow was missing its ulnar collateral ligament, and his lifelong dream—along with his $810,000 signing bonus—was ripped away. Yet despite being twice consigned to baseball's scrap heap, Dickey battled back. Today, he is the starting pitcher for the New York Mets and one of the National League's premier players.
Sustained by his Christian faith, the love of his wife and children, and a relentless quest for self-awareness, Dickey overcame extraordinary setbacks—including being sexually molested as a child. Whatever their team allegiance or personal faith, baseball fans everywhere will embrace Dickey's life-affirming message and the quintessentially American tale that he so eloquently shares.
